Hide my head

We went to the Fort Worth Zoo, and in the MOLA (Museum of Living Art) there was a very relatable beaded lizard.

We see and feel you Beaded Lizard.

Pardon me, as I skip frame

I took in my SD card from the trail cam and uploaded it on the computer. There were 50 pictures, mostly of deer parts, but with two adjacent pictures that made a nearly whole deer. It made me laugh.

Cloud shadows

Doing the morning school drive there were numerous contrails across the blue sky. One contrail was casting a shadow on the wispy cirrus clouds in the distance. It made a striking effect, and I rolled down the window and took a picture while we were stopped at a light.

Trail cam captures

I still have the trail cam set up to watch the water bowl behind the coop. It turns out that there are at minimum five raccoons washing in the dish. Hm.

I’m not the only one watching. Mr Tom was caught keeping an eye on an opossum coming in for a drink.
